WTB Computer For MAME

(1/2) > >>

parpunk:
Hello everybody, Im new to this site and i came here to get some information on getting stuff for my computer to build a MAME, but it kinda seems that the computer i had picked out to use isnt really gonna work for what i want. it doesnt have AGP slot or anything. So basically i was wanting to see if anyone has a computer for sale. I dont need a monitor just a good computer to use for MAME in my homemade arcade im making. heres what i would like in a package if possible>>>

Computer that has a AGP slot, and preferably a graphics card already in it. If it dont have one in it, thats fine, but it must have a AGP slot in it. The graphics card would also have to have S video. Basically the way im gonna do my MAME is run the computer to a flat screen TV through S video.  Also any extra stuff the computer has is a plus. Im not really going for nothing extremely fancy, but i would love the computer to be able to handle games like Marvel vs. Capcom and possibly even like Tekken, plus all the old school 4 player arcade games like TMNT, simpsons, X men etc.

I will buy or Trade, but the only stuff i have for trade are classic Games, NES, snes, Etc. Send me a PM or email me at parpunk@aol.com. if anyone has anything to get me started in MAME!! Also i have AOL IM under the name parpunk if someone wants to chat. I hope someone can help me out. thanks!!

I don't think there is such thing as a vga slot on a pc.  I believe you are looking for a video card that does s-video output and fits preferably in an AGP or even better a PCI-E slot.

Am I missing something here?   :dizzy:

Uh...pretty much ALL computers have VGA connectors.  If they don't have VGA,  I guess they would have DVI,  but only high end cards have DVI only (with a DVI to VGA converter).  Am I the one confused?    :dunno

parpunk:
lol nah im the one whos confused LOL sorry about that. i meant AGP.  as i said im still very new to all this. i modified my original post. Sorry to be such a newbie lol. Anyways now i think the post makes sense. can anyone help me out!  :)

SNAAKE:
just get a modded xbox instead..gamestop has them for $100. then mod it yourself or have someone mod it for you. mame runs 90% of the games full speed including marvel vs capcom and such. PM me if you are not familer with modding xboxes..I can do it for you. check console section for my thread too while you are at it.
